Norman Richard Collins (1907 – 1982) was a British writer, and later a radio and television executive, who became one of the major figures behind the establishment of the Independent Television (ITV) network in the UK. This was the first organisation to break the BBC’s broadcasting monopoly when it began transmitting in 1955.  
 
 
About the book: The novel features a wide array of characters, each with unique stories and personalities, reflecting the societal cross-section of the time. It is a classic of mid-20th-century British literature, appreciated for its warmth, humanity, and authentic depiction of London’s working-class life. Three years later, the novel was made into a popular film starring Richard Attenborough.
